I am a novice at using functions
If you only had a couple of choices for the city/state, you could use a few
=If()'s. But after even a few entries, this becomes difficult. I'd create a new sheet and put the city/states in column A and the zips in column B. Then I could use =vlookup() to retrieve the zipcodes. =if(a1="","",vlookup(a1,sheet2!a:b,2,false) Debra Dalgleish has lots of notes: http://www.contextures.com/xlFunctions02.html (for =vlookup()) and http://contextures.com/xlFunctions02.html#Trouble April wrote: But I am do a function like this - if column A equals Hendersonville, TN, then I want Excel to automatically enter the zip of 37075.

whether both of the data (i.e.) Name and zip is present in somewhere of your
workbook? Like this Hendersonville, TN 37075 -------------------- (Ms-Exl-Learner) -------------------- "April" wrote: But I am do a function like this - if column A equals Hendersonville, TN, then I want Excel to automatically enter the zip of 37075. How would I write that? Thanks for the help. |

But Hendersonville has two zip codes...37075 and 37077. And what about Nashville, which lists 37201 through 37222, 37224, 37227 through 37230, 37232 and 37234 through 37250 for a total of 45 options. |
